Phase II donation program returns as semester nears end
At the end of every school year, many students leave behind good, usable items. These items often include blankets, clothing, kitchen supplies, small appliances, radios, room decorations, little tables, etc. In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of resources, Phase II was initiated. Plant Services is happy to receive anything that students do not want to take home.
The items gathered are sorted and made available to student summer help and staff, but most of the items are given to different organizations in the local area, including Rescue Mission, Shelters and Love INC. Barrels will be placed in the lobbies of the dorms and central living areas, as well as on the porches of the Weesner, Beals, Hoskins, Munn, Villa Road Houses and Newlin Apartments.
Note: Please do not donate damaged or soiled items. Also, please do not place trash in the barrels labeled “Phase II.” There are drop boxes for your trash located strategically around campus.
Donated items will be stored at Wright House (515 Villa Road) and will be available to employees/summer students after the first week of May.
Have a great summer and the Lord bless you as you go.

Phase II Coordinator
